3. Where do we use plasmolysis at home?
Answers
Answer:
Here is the answer...
Explanation:
Plant cells are eukaryotes, composed of specialised cellular organelles that differ in several fundamental factors from Animal cell. Plant cells usually consist of a thick cell wall that functions by holding them upright and also prevents from losing their shape. The plasma membrane, cytoplasm and all other cell organelles function together to keep the plant active. The vacuoles, a fluid-filled membrane-bound organelle, located within the cytoplasm, holds the water in the plant cell. In certain conditions, plant cells do not get a sufficient amount of water, or there is a severe loss of water from the cell. This results in the total shrinkage of the plant cell and the phenomenon are called plasmolysis.

Answer:
Spraying of weedicides kills weeds in lawns, orchards and agricultural fields. This is due to the natural phenomena-Plasmolysis. When more amount of salt is added as the preservatives for food like jams, jellies, and pickles.
Some real-life examples of Plasmolysis are: Shrinkage of vegetables in hypertonic conditions. Blood cell shrinks when they are placed in the hypertonic conditions. During extreme coastal flooding, ocean water deposits salt onto land. Spraying of weedicides kills weeds in lawns, orchards and agricultural fields.
Plasmolysis: Hypertonic environment or hot/dry weather conditions may cause the cells, with a cell wall, to lose water. This process eventually induces the cell membrane to collapse inside the cell wall resulting in gaps between the cell wall and cell membrane and lysis occurs as the cell shrivels and dies.
